This is the only place I have found that might have what I need. But of course the one place I need to post in..... I cant.. for some reason I need ten posts to be able to do this.
I dont want to post a bunch of useless posts just to be able to post in one forum.
I am not an expert at this but nor am I a complete noob, so I will cast my line out here and hope I get a bite.
I am looking for the stock rom for the Huawei ascend II M865c from straight talk (Sprint ver)
So if anyone could help out that would be great.
Thank you .
Or perhaps mods could see fit to allow me the privelage to post in the thread I need to post in.

[Q] I need help unrooting Verizon S4-sorry to have to ask..

First of all let me say I'm sorry to even have to post this. I've looked and I'm sure this question has been posted a million times. But a lot of it just looks like Greek to me.
I recently bought a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 and found later that evening that it was rooted.
It's running Hyperdrive and the latest version. Also has a TeamWin screen.
I'd really like to unroot it and return it back to bone stock. But I haven't had any luck finding the firmware or instructions on how to do so that a new guy could totally understand.
If someone could give me a step by step and where I can find the stock firmware, I'd be forever grateful.
Thank you for reading this and I hope you all have a great day!

Alright, just follow steps 1 and 2 from this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2301259
I haven't used it myself but you should keep apps and data and be stock unrooted. If you have any issues or questions you can ask me or the OP of that thread.

A No-Wipe will still leave remains behind of software. If you want stock follow what I sent you.

I figured it would have removed the root access and the TWRP recovery and leave it in a mostly stock state.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337 4.4.2 KitKat Root

Hey everyone,
So I have been trying to root my newly updated Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-I337 AT&T) for a couple of days now and still no success.
I've tried MotoChopper, a series of different CF-AutoRoot files and neither have given any luck. Odin stops right after SuperUser.apk is pushed over and gives the "Threads failed: 1 Success: 0" message.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in Advance.
Search before you post

THERE IS A THREAD FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and are you running stock or custom and look it up on the galaxy s4 troubleshooting page before you post here
Search it up i dont want to help in this thread but i will help you or someone else will when its in the right thread
I have the same problem, I am attaching here my cell data.
please help me.
Same problem
I have a galaxy s4 att 4.4 and have been wondering the same thing. Seems like no one has found and way to root the phone yet. As for the guy who flipped out in the post above. Give it a break man. This website is made so a bunch of developers can come together and help each other out and fix problems. There should be no putting down just because it was put on the wrong thread or whatever. It's the people like you that ruin the fun in hacking for all of us. If there's already a thread then just tell the owner of this one or any one nicely and point them in the right direction with a Link or something. No need to be mean.

Thanks for the Link but I can't find a thread that specifically talked about rooting the galaxy s4 4.2.2. I wish they would find a way soon
Where is the link?

How about a link to the exact thread then, bud? Prove that there is one. If you dont, there is no thread.
Can anyone direct me to the right place? the link above doesn't seem to show me where to go.

Was this done on a phone with a Canadian wireless service? I don't know how similar the phones are between the US and Canada (pardon my naivete), but if so, how risky is this root method for a US phone?
Thanks.

I just registered to say I am in the same situation. I just got a Galaxy S4 i337 with 4.4.2 from AT&T and I am already desperate to get it rooted. My 64GB Micro SD card is going to be almost useless until I do thanks to Google royally screwing over my ability to use external storage, and I'm already almost out of internal storage. I am hesitant to try something for i337M if it's untested with i337, and I'm not about to risk bricking my brand new phone. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I don't need any of the info., but I'm searching for a friend who is not tech. inclined. Still think you deserve a "Thanks" for that because Turtleman was not helping at all. After all, that's what these site for. One hand washes the other.

Please help me!

Guys please help. I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 sch-i545 (verizon) and I recently rooted with Kingroot. I am on version 5.0.1 and was wondering if you guys could walk me through installing a rom. The rom I am trying to download is the Synergy rom because it's a deodex rom and goes for my phone. The only this is idk how all I've done so far is install superuser and that's it can someone please walk me thru it would he greatly appreciated.
I'm curious.
What makes this subforum appropriate for this question?
Why wouldn't you visit the s4 forums?
Why would you ask about installing some other ROM in the Paranoid Android forum?

I don't know anything about the Verizon s4, but the post has been moved to the appropriate forum and all you need to do is read the stickies and info that's already been written. There is zero reason for someone to have to rewrite everything you need to know when it's already been done.
